Founders

DOVE received its 501(c)3 nonprofit status in May 2000, thanks to the hard work and dedication of our five founders:

Jo Damiano

Kristie Lukowicz

Michele (Mattio) McCarthy

Elaine (Woody) Navratil

Jennifer Pfau

In honor of DOVE’s 14th anniversary in May 2014, the founders reconvened and created a vlog describing DOVE’s four core values. These core values are the reason DOVE was established and the reason DOVE continues to exist.
